7. START UP AND OPERATION
Pump Power
The RainFlo MHP Series pumps are equipped with a 5 foot power cord.
The pump is typically paired with an auxiliary pump control such as the
RainFlo 115V pump controller for on/off functions and run-dry protection.
The pump system may be directly plugged in to a 115 volt wall outlet
that uses a 15 amp circuit breaker (verify local codes for compliance
with ground-fault and wiring standards). The pump itself may be tempo
-
rarily plugged into 115V power for troubleshooting the pump controller.
Upon connection, without a pump controller or pressure switch setup,
the pump will turn on and pump continuously until it is unplugged or it
runs out of water and overheats. Run-dry conditions and overheating will
void the factory warranty. It is recommended to always use this pump in
conjunction with a pump control system. When using an electronic pump
controller, all electrical connections should always be made by a qualified
electrician. Extra care should be taken to verify that all components are
properly grounded.
NOTICE
: This pump must be primed prior to first use.
Priming Procedure
1.
Connect the pump inlet (the stainless steel female threaded connec
-
tion) to the water source and remove any air from the line.
2. Remove the priming bolt (the stainless steel bolt at the top near the
inlet) and pour approximately one cup of water into the pump body.
3. Replace and tighten the priming bolt.
Repeat 2-3 times if necessary. If the pump is not pumping water after 3
attempts, verify the inlet plumbing is supplying water to the pump. No
additional priming should be necessary under normal circumstances.
